Dealing With Partner Away Working

[LoverGirl55]

Hey Guys

Ive been with my boyfriend for 3 years and just lately he has began to travel for work, the last trip was a couple months ago for 4 weeks and i really struggled with him gone, i would cry and just feel really down i tried all the tips liking hanging out with friends and trying to keep myself busy and it just wouldn't work i would be always checking my phone in case i got a message or missed a call. This time something has come up quick and he will be traveling overseas on Monday for 5 weeks i feel really down about this and its gonna be harder being overseas with different timezone and more limited contact ! what can i do ? im really dreading this time home alone

Thank You

Well its a good thing he's not in the military! Keep yourself occupied with hobbies and friends and dont call him twice a day, give him some time to miss you! I spend alot of time with my sister and rest of family when my boyfriend is away and I barely have anytime to miss him. One month really isnt that bad compared to others in long distance relationships.

Some people can do long distance, others can't. Maybe you can't.
